  • chanting an obvious joke exaggeration

    Woke Leftist don't have a sense of humor so we know this is a lie.

  • It’s trans adults, too: GOP candidates now back trans medical restrictions for all ages
  • Bunch a pedo groomers in here.

  • Airbnb is adding cleaning fees to a new 'total price' of bookings in search results after people complained listings were misleading
  • We are taught from a young age the need for money

    Bartering isn't any better than using fiat. Fiat allows economies to function at a level bartering can never approach. To say we 'need' money exposes your ignorance.

  • But Capitalism

    Here's a hint, capitalism isn't the problem. Capitalism allows us to do what we want, which means we can be greedy. Freedom is a two edged sword. One that I will gladly take cuts from while it enables our way of life. No one else is responsible for your safety but you.

  • Money doesn't turn people evil. Humans are inherently greedy. Money is the scalpel that exposes our true self.

  • USB-C hubs and my slow descent into madness - Dennis Schubert
  • I will never get how and why Apple shills defend the shit that Apple does.

    They want the product because it looks fancy and they don't know any better about the specs to realize it's overpriced. Or they do know and don't care because it's a status symbol. Which is worse, really.

    I mean the first iPhone couldn't even use the music on the phone for ringtones. There were like 10 pre-loaded rings and that was it. Meanwhile my Windows smart phone could use any MP3 on the SD card (which could also be used to play music). But people were lining up around the block for the iPhone even though it was objectively worse that the other phones at the time. It was just shiny and didn't require thinking to use, just blind acceptance.

  • is using a USB ethernet adapter preferable to a wireless access point that is close to my machine?

    Almost certainly. Always go wired when possible. Not only will the wired device be faster, there will be more bandwidth available for other devices still using wireless. Wireless is a shared transmission medium you want as few devices using it as possible.

  • Reddit now won't let non-logged in users see subreddits until they've been "reviewed"
  • Reddit search has always been broken, even when it was working.

  • 10 year Club, Multiple Awards, 17k / 24k gone....
  • One account got banned from a local subreddit for posting with a < 60 day account. Then I forgot about that (wasn't a big deal) and posted in that same sub with an alt. So a ban for a small technical reason turned into getting banned from the whole site. Way to go Reddit!!

  • Intel is quitting on its adorable, powerful, and upgradable mini NUC computers
  • the Raspberry Pis are slightly underpowered (plus the SD-card as the primary storage is limiting).

    OrangePi has been my go-to since these got expensive. More features, including a 8gb emmc module built in, and just as cheap.

  • Has anyone used or contributed to OpenStreetMap?
  • I've used their map layers for a public data website. Worked great.

  • What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected?
  • Had a totally custom beanie made at Etsy. See if you can find something similar. They can usually customize it to get a close match to the old one.

  • Big chefs knife is what I use for pizza. Though having a couple sets of scissors around wouldn't be a bad idea.

  • 10 year Club, Multiple Awards, 17k / 24k gone....
  • Over 15 years here. All gone over 'vote manipulation' which is a complete joke as Reddit manipulates the vote counts constantly. Only they can do that!

    Good riddance. Lemmy and similar already have a better experience.

  • Every other species in the world gets to go out in their birthday suit...
  • The change happened when we lost all-over body hair.

  • Desperate or just business as normal?
  • That’s like the exact opposite of what reddit was stated to be when I first joined.

    It is exactly the opposite of what Aaron Swartz created.

  • Asus has made a mid range GPU that includes an m.2 slot.
  • Weebs should be ashamed of themselves, not reviewing GPUs.

  • GM ditching CarPlay could go bad, complain car dealers
  • I built a better solution that doesn't require plugging anything in, so for me it wasn't useful. Bought a new car and now I simply use bluetooth for music. I see CarPlay has a wireless option now, I should look into that.

  • Everything has LEDs now and they drive me nuts
  • Buying RAM recently and people are reviewing the fucking RGB instead of the performance. Like, WTF are you doing with your life? I managed to find some without gratuitous lighting effects thankfully.

  • Husky tools were recommended to me by a diesel mechanic. Home Depot brand. The tools are pretty nice and warranty has been solid.
